Will Donkin

Will works as a Senior Developer in our Research and Development department. Will works closely with Chris our Technical Project Manager and the other developers in the team to ensure requirements are translated into high quality code and ultimately useable functionality for our customers.

Will believes the best way to develop software is the breakdown of requirements into small implementable packages of work. This forces developers to communicate about the requirement before the implementation, everybody in the team can get involved to share their existing code base experience and contribute solution ideas. This open discussion enables all developers in the team to grow regardless of their experience level and everyone feels responsibility towards the product they are building. Will is an advocate of pair programming and mentoring which he believes is the best way to grow a developer’s confidence, self-belief and enable them in time to become more self-reliant. Will understands the importance of repeatable automated integration and deployments of software releases and is always looking to improve processes to make the development lifecycle a smoother journey.

Will has 15 years’ experience of working as a Software developer having started out as a graduate developer working up to becoming a developer, a senior developer and a development lead. Will has worked on web, mobile and desktop bespoke software implementations for a wide array of clients form start-ups to multinational organisations.

Will has a desire to keep improving Datatrial and their product suite. In order to achieve this we will always listen to our customer with an open dialogue about future implementation to ensure we develop features that bring them the most benefit in their day-to-day workflow using our software.

Will has passed Microsoft MCP exams and attended Microsoft training days as well as a number of independent developer conferences.
